* Training your furry friend*
By Maris Karner
ABC certified dog trainer
It's never too late or too early to establish the communication between the owner and their dog using effective methods of dog training.Always firm,friendly and gentle.We never use force or physical methods when teaching the dog to fol
low our lead.Love, attention and lots of treats will result in a good behaving pup that makes the neighbors envious. About me:
I am a certified dog trainer by completing Animal Behavioral College where i became to understand the way dogs think,act and react.The school has taught me understanding the psychology of a dog which we,the humans can use to teach what we think is appropriate and wanted behavior and eliminate the unwanted acts. I gained my hands-on experience in dog training in Chicago,where i completed a 7 week basic obedience program with my own dog. As part of the ABC ,i volunteered in Colorado,Frisco animal shelter to rehabilitate dogs currently staying in shelter.I taught them basic commands and proper socializing in this tough time of their lives.Keeping the dogs busy with mental stimulation helped them to get over some of their fears and wait for their new" forever home" a little more fun while becoming more adoptable. In Miami, i completed my externship program attending obedience classes over several weeks with my dog training mentor in various pet shops. I also work closely with Fur Angels Rescue here in Miami by fostering their dogs. Introductory rates: $50 a session in privacy of your home

This class focuses on basic household manners, household management, safety behaviors and the five basic behaviors (sit, down, stay, come and loose leash walking) are introduced. This is a must for all dogs – especially if it is new in your home.We would be meeting once a week to learn a cue and practice it for a week and then add a new one.TO get the basic obedience down,it takes about 5 to 7 weeks.
